Does anyone know how to get the help content to work in mac Leopard OS 10.5.2 in LW 9.3.1? I downloads and installed the LW mac help flashdocs to their default location and then tried copying them from the Macintosh HD - Library - Documentation - Help - LightWave.help package contents (revealed by right-clicking on LightWave.help in the Help folder) into the LW 9 Help folder; contained in the Lightwave 3D 9 Applications folder. Despite moving the files, I cannot open the LW help files using the dropdown menu in Layout or Modeler.

I can open the help files only by clicking on the appropriate help.htm files contained in the above.

You renamed the file "MacLightWaveintro.html" to "LightWave_Help.htm" and moved it to the "sharedsupport" folder?

Yeah, it just doesn't work. Until it's final you won't get tech support.
-I haven't looked at it in 9.5.

There seem to be a lot of issues with Leopard letting users access files in the Applications folder--I'm having the same problem with Help files, and I also haven't been able to save to the Preset Shelf, and some plugins won't seem to load either.

Not sure what to do about it.

Thanks for your replies. I set up an alias to the LW help files and access LW help from my user folder.
